I believe the problem is more in the software than the hardware. Linux just isn’t great in this regard yet.

Fedora KDE on the framwork laptop. Not the only one here it seems. My pc still runs Windows 10 but I’ll change that once I have the time.

Fedora is cool because it is about as user friendly to beginners as Ubuntu, without Canonicals shenanigans. It’s a freedom respecting community project and always pretty up to date. I like the quick release cycle. It seems like a good balance between a rolling release and slow fixed releases. Upgrading to the next version takes no effort. And KDE is just cool for it’s customizability.

That’s the joke right? It’s just poking some fun at Linux users for feeling superior, I see no harm in it.

Cool, I’m on the same laptop, same distro and same spin. I really like it, but I wish batterylife was better on Linux in general and that hibernation wasn’t such a pain to setup.

If you want Microsoft to get fucked, you’ll also have to remove the telemetry (or leave Windows).

They at least suspended an account that crossposted a Lemmy migration post in many 3rd party app subs for a couple of hours for spamming. Seems like you could reasonably argue it was spamming though.

I agree that the signing up process should be streamlined and bugs should be fixed. But I don’t agree we should maximize the userbase even if we need to weed out a lot of nasty people and bots later. That would make the platform more unpleasant instead of better.

I think the critical mass has already been reached. Not to be an exact copy of Reddit with all its tiny subs, but to be a nice place in its own right.

To combat the splintering problem I think there should be an option to combine similar communities of different instances. You would still have to choose an instance when posting, but when reading you wouldn’t.

• r/metroidvania
• r/singingdogs
• r/cateatingvegans
• r/debateavegan

Yeah, like a bear with balance

Here is their donation page with all three currently supported options.

I don’t know much about Open Collective, but LiberaPay does not take a cut (only the fees of the payment processors) so I would discourage you to choose Patreon.

Edit: Actually there are more options listed since you can also donate crypto.

Yet breeders should be absolutely illegal.

I agree. Even individual pet owners (or guardians) breeding with their pet is problematic imo. Certainly when they choose the breeding partners.

But even if the dogs are free to choose themselves you could argue that you shouldn’t let them breed because it would be better to adopt animals in need rather than create new animals.

Me too, although I think adoption can be okay

I’d say it’s unethical to breed them, but not to adopt them if that’s in their best interest.
